About environmental policy at St. Norbert College
The primary goal of the environmental policy program is to inform students about the roles that government and private action play in the preservation and/or degradation of the environment within the moral, philosophical and ethical context of a Catholic liberal arts college.
Why study environmental policy?
Our natural environment is a system of complex interrelationships that cannot be addressed sufficiently by a single traditional academic specialty. Yet in order to survive, humans must understand the scope of their intervention in the environment and the resultant impact of that intervention. Those charged with making environmental policy, as well as those who conduct their professional lives under these policies, must possess knowledge and skills in a wide range of disciplines.
